    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    Contact Report:

    Enemy Encountered: <The Shadow Guard>, <Lords of Zoist>, <Penumbral>, <Nightmare Squadron>, <Reign> and many other assorted Imperial Conscripts

    Friendly/Neutral Encountered: <The Guardians>, <Uncharted Space>, <Knights of Sokan>, <Systems CommonWealth>, <Marine Expeditionary Unit>, <Remnants of Hope>

    Contact Summary: After the launch of Galactic Strongholds, Alpha Company forces began a multi-day campaign to hunt down and strike Imperial planetary commanders in search of the valuable flagship data encryptions and frameworks which were rumored to be in their possession. After identifying the locations and patrol times of these key targets, Alpha Company forces began rotating deployments between planets throughout all hours of the day and night in order maximize the amount of encryptions and frameworks acquired from these valuable targets. Although there were numerous lulls in between planetside operations, this effort persisted for hours on end, with troopers swapping out for rest and refit while replacements continued the effort in their stead.

    Over the course of three days, this force acquired six completed frameworks and over 180 data encryptions, which is a titanic feat in such a short amount of time. In addition to securing a plethora of vital parts for the Torik, this task force also successfully defended multiple Republic planetary commanders on Voss and Quesh against sizeable Imperial offensives. Alpha Company forces forced the aggressive Imperials to abandon their campaigns and look for softer targets elsewhere.

    On numerous occasions, other Republic forces competed against Alpha Company's strike team in an effort to claim the Imperial commander's encryptions for themselves. The most notable culprit was <The Guardians>, which repeatedly attempted to lure (taunted) the planetary commander away from the engagement zone (aggro reset) to thwart our strike. Additionally, Imperial forces clearly in league with <The Guardians> under the banner of <The Shadow Guard> arrived and harassed our assault force in an effort to repulse our attacks on the Imperial commander. This interference occurred on Quesh, Corellia, and Ilum. As a result of their constant treachery, Alpha Company forces actively thwarted a commander strike being conducted by <The Guardians> on Belsavis and caused their strike force to be wiped out. This back and forth between our two forces resulted in a prolonged stalemate. Eventually, a compromise was reached that allowed our forces to cooperate with each other rather than compete. A fair system of encryption and framework distribution was devised and hostilities between our two groups was pacified.

    Similar pledges of cooperation were achieved with other Republic entities, resulting in a much more positive atmosphere among competing Republic forces for the valuable resources provided by striking Imperial planetary commanders.

    Positive Points:
    • We accrued a massive amount of guild flagship parts.
    • Our force developed and honed an effective strategy for killing planetary commanders.
    • SPC. Kateri showed exceptional dedication to the effort beyond the call of duty, maintaining her readiness for extended periods of time in order to support unit operations.
    • All Alpha Company troopers showed a willingness to support the unit by committing large amounts of their time to participant in the prolonged effort.
    • We reached a compromise with competing Republic guilds to ensure we all have fair opportunities to acquire these vital ship parts.
    Negative Points:
    • Hunting planetary commanders takes an enormous amount of man hours and dedication in order to achieve notable results.
    • The heavy competition for flagship parts has created a tense atmosphere throughout the Republic community.
    • Our force engaged in dirty tactics and foul play at one point in order to retaliate against those who had repeatedly used these tactics on us.
    Overall Assessment and Recommendation:

    I am personally humbled and proud of the accomplishment this protracted effort has achieved. Because of everyone's combined efforts, we were able to not just celebrate the launch of our new flagship, but we also were able to unlock additional sections of the vessel with the stockpile of frameworks we had accrued in just a few short days. The effort displayed by both veteran troopers and new recruits alike was inspiring, and reflects great credit upon all those who participated. The most important thing to acknowledge in this endeavor however, is not our success. The constant harassment and abuse we suffered from competing Republic players caused us to forget our unit's Code of Conduct and engage in acts which were deliberately designed to disrupt and hinder the efforts of another Republic guild.

    Although our despicable actions resulted in a mutual compromise with our rival and a few initial steps towards reconciliation, we must identify and accept the fact that what we did was not honorable, and it blatantly violated our regulations on personal conduct. Just because others play dirty doesn't mean we are allowed to forget our values. As we move forward with Galactic Strongholds, lets be sure to keep this in the forefront of our minds. It's not easy to take the high road, but I'm confident we have the patience and maturity to do so.
